overwhelmed

 

There are too many unfinished projects in the sewing room right now. I’ve been feeling overwhelmed lately and obligated to get all these finished.

As a result I’m jumping from one project to another and not enjoying the process. I like to make quilts as a pastime not because I have to. Each project is only progressing incrementally so it feels like there’s nothing to show for all that effort.

Time for a rethink. I’ve been enjoying working on one of these projects so that’s the one I’ll keep working on. When that’s finished, I’ll choose another. 

So you might not see me here as often. I’ll be back when I have something worth posting.

Till then, I hope you are enjoying your projects and making good progress on them.

rsc2024 extended february

Haven’t done a lot of sewing in February. The hot weather we’ve been having really zaps my energy levels.

Typical weather for this time of year but it’s dragging on too long as far as I’m concerned.

Still working on the Granny Squares

Just starting to become a wee bit nervous about how these blocks will go once they are trimmed and those bias edges come into play. Wondering if it’s possible to sew a strip first and then trim it.

Made a couple of the Leaders and Enders blocks and I really like how they are turning out.




Well that’s all for now.
